From: Stanislav Kinsburskii <stanislav.kinsburs...@gmail.com> These helper function - virt_to_phys - doesn't need the address pointer to be mutable.
In the same time expecting it to be mutable leads to the following build warning for constant pointers: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘virt_to_phys’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type Signed-off-by: Stanislav Kinsburskii <stanislav.kinsburs...@gmail.com> CC: Michael Ellerman <m...@ellerman.id.au> CC: Nicholas Piggin <npig...@gmail.com> CC: Christophe Leroy <christophe.le...@csgroup.eu> CC: Geert Uytterhoeven <ge...@linux-m68k.org> CC: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelg...@google.com> CC: Stanislav Kinsburskii <stanislav.kinsburs...@gmail.com> CC: Arnd Bergmann <a...@arndb.de> CC: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org CC: linux-ker...@vger.kernel.org --- arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h index f1e657c9bbe8..c287eeb9536f 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h +++ b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h @@ -959,7 +959,7 @@ extern void __iomem *__ioremap_caller(phys_addr_t, unsigned long size, * almost all conceivable cases a device driver should not be using * this function */ -static inline unsigned long virt_to_phys(volatile void * address) +static inline unsigned long virt_to_phys(const volatile void * address) { WARN_ON(IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL) && !virt_addr_valid(address));
